Undocumented transgender immigrants in the United States are among the most vulnerable to discrimination and violence in employment, housing, healthcare, and opportunities for citizenship under current U.S. immigration law, according to a new report by the National Center for Transgender Equality.

Transgender activists hope the new report will inject a transgender voice into the immigration debate and will help to educate lawmakers, other community organizations, the LGBT community, and allies across the country.
